Windchimes Timing
We are frequently asked to rate the short day timing of the Windchimes. All Windchimes bloom early under short days. As days get longer, however, Windchimes become increasingly reproductive. Below, Windchimes are rated for their recommended day length use. Group 1 is the earliest under short days:
Group 1: Rose & Purple, Neon & White, Dark Eyes
Group 2: Pink & White, White/White
Group 3: Pink & Purple
Comments:
Selected for its spreading branching habit, early flower response, and continuous bloom even as days get warmer. Windchime Rose/Purple and Pink/Purple exhibit a perfectly branched habit that spreads to fill baskets or pots with multitudes of flowers. The Neon/White and Pink/White is slightly more compact and are very early to flower.
